Axiva Extraction Thimble (Pack of 25)

Axiva Extraction Thimbles are specialized cylindrical filters used in extraction processes to separate desired compounds or analytes from solid or semi-solid samples. These thimbles are typically made from materials such as cellulose, glass microfiber, or other suitable materials that are inert and resistant to the solvents used in the extraction process. Extraction thimbles are commonly employed in Soxhlet extraction, a method used to extract compounds from a solid sample using a solvent. The sample is placed in a thimble, which is then inserted into a Soxhlet extractor. The solvent is continuously boiled, and the vapor rises, condenses, and drips back down onto the sample, extracting the desired compounds. The extracted solution then drips through the thimble, where it is collected for further analysis. Axiva likely offers extraction thimbles in various sizes and materials to accommodate different extraction procedures and sample types. These thimbles are designed to withstand the rigors of the extraction process and ensure efficient extraction and recovery of analytes. Overall, Axiva Extraction Thimbles are essential tools for laboratories conducting extraction procedures, providing reliable and efficient separation of compounds from solid samples for various analytical applications.
